Ms. Doctor Divine

Chapter 81: Confidence

At Jingxin Hut.

Gu Chaoyan had no idea what Mrs. Lin said about her as she was drinking the tea.

Qing had already done the packing and came pouring the tea for Gu Chaoyan.

As Lin Jiaxing came in, he happened to run into this beautiful scene. Suddenly, he thought of his deceased sister. Before his sister got married, she was like this too. She liked to sit in the room, drinking tea. If only she were still alive... Lin Jiaxing stopped thinking any more about that. He let out a sigh and walked into the room.

Seeing him walking in, Gu Chaoyan got up. “Hi, Uncle.”

Lin Jiaxing’s eyes were watering. He nodded with a smile and gave her the box in his arms.

The box was made of sanders, small, exquisite and well-weathered. Gu Chaoyan opened the box and took out the list. The paper felt very thick. She knew instantly how abundant her mother’s dowries had been.

Her grandfather treated Gu Chaoyan’s mother very nicely.

At this time Gu Chaoyan got startled too, though she had been prepared.

So much!

That was indeed a lot of dowries.

No wonder Madam Gu and Gu Zhenkang still took Mrs. Lin in, although they never respected her for being the daughter of a business family.

It was a little bit difficult to get the Gu Family to return all of these back to her.

Seeing Gu Chaoyan’s behavior, Lin Jiaxing asked. “Chaoyan, what made you want to read the list?” Lin Jiaxing added directly, “Oh yes, you are turning 15 in spring next year and soon you are getting married. So it is reasonable that you are checking on your dowries.”

There was a clause of law in the Saint Divine Land.

The bride’s dowries belonged to herself. Unless she herself agreed, her husband’s family was never allowed to have a hand in them. Also, the dowries would be passed down to the bride’s daughter. Lin Jiaxing knew that Chaoyan was his sister’s only daughter, so these were Chaoyan’s anyway.

That was why he did not ask anything more.

Gu Chaoyan looked up at Lin Jiaxing. She just could not believe that a businessman like her uncle could be so honest?

“Uncle, why do you trust the Gu Family so deeply? Why do you believe that they would give all of those dowries to me?” Gu Chaoyan asked.

“Dowries are supposed to be passed down to the daughter.” Lin Jiaxing said firmly without extra thoughts.

Gu Chaoyan shook her head with a smile. No wonder the Gu Family never had difficulty in getting whatever they wanted.

That was only because the Lin Family were way too innocent.

No wonder her uncle would have kept the angry words said by Gu Chaoyan for such a long time.

“A few days ago, Madame Gu discussed something with me. She said that she wants me to give up my position as the lineal daughter for the Second Sister Gu Ruxue, because she is going to marry a noble family like Duke Changning, and she needs the position.” Gu Chaoyan said calmly. “Uncle, do you think that a family who wants a position like this would understand anything about rules and stick to them?”

“What?” Lin Jiaxing struck hard on the table, and the tea from the cup spilled out. “How dare they!”

Lin Jiaxing’s face turned red because of fury. With fists clenched, he said, “How dare they raise such a proposal! I will talk with them now!”

Gu Chaoyan grabbed his arm. Her heart felt warmed.

“Uncle, don’t worry. I have a plan for this.”
